A Word With Farmers.
TWadeSbOro Argus.

The margins of farmers profits now
are small we know, but it does not fol-
low that they should allow themselves
to indulge in vain repinings and to
become chronic grumblers. There are
MANY thousands in other industrial
pursuits all over our broad land who
are sailing in the boat, and as the
spring time advances, with its many
hurrying duties and its new demands
for its expenditures in making ready
for another seed-time, we counsel them
in all friendliness to avail themselves
of a wholesome reflection on their bus
iness affairs, that peradventure some
heretofore unseen ways may be sug-
gested for the allevation of the exist
ing conditions and sources of their
complainings. Avail yourself of all
the home resources for enlarglng your
manure supply-barn yard, stable,
poultry houses, ETC., and supply in such
manner as to produce best results, and
add most improvement fland. Raise
suficiency of meat for family con-
sumption. Let nothing go to waste.
Cultivate such crops as are best suited
to your land. In determining this
question, surrounding circumstances
must be carefully looked into and
weighed, such as proximity to market;
texture of land, and many other con-
siderations canvassed, and the best
judgment ought to be used in decid-
ing this matter. Spare no pains to
provide for the family liberal supply
of the best vegetables, which besides
being conducive to health, when nice
and fresh, furnish frugal household
almost a living.

TCharlOtte Chronicle.


This little word of three letters has
an eternity Of meaning Few people,
we fear, realize its full significance. 1t
is the mightiest Of words. Now. 1t
is ever with us as long as life endures,
and we cannot proceed one minute
beyond or 60 one minute backward.
The past is in it with its face of JOY or
face Of despair, with its voice of music
or its sound of discord. The future is
in it with the weakness or the strength
that falls from its hand into the heart.
What a man was and is and will be is
in it. Each mans somewhat and s)mc-
where is in it, each mans character,
each mans destinity. Whatever we
plant IN 1t grows out of 1t. Whatever
we write into it reads out of it. What
ever faces we paint into 1t will look
out of it. Whatever voices we speak
into it Will speak out of it, If we
know of good works to perform, per
form them now If we have kind
words to speak, speak them now. II
we have enemies to forgive, forgive
them now. Let this idea run through
all the departments of life. Now! II
/ it is woven the garment i'll which we
walk 70 the Judgment, and in which
we walk through eternity. Awfu
with defeat or grand with victory, the
destiny of US all is being built by oul
own hand into the heart of the eternal
NOW.

THE DYING WARRIOR.
Written for the GOLD LEAP. ]
4 warrior diving lonely Law.

A warrior dying lonely lay.
Upon his couch at feeting day.
The thatched wigwam's lowly door
Swung gently open, to and fro,
Propelled by force of Western breeze
That sung among the green pine trees
And mourned and sung Of times that by
Had flown on wing away for aye,
That sung of times when proudly they
Sung DER the lodge where red men lay
And dream't but of the deeds of might
And courted the masses of the night
And sung of deeds of valor told
Among the lodges-where young and old
Iisten'd to the tales of blood,
Tales of drouth and tales Of flood.
The door swung open, open wide
And the setting sun shed tide
of golden warmth of suns last ray
Fell on the couch where the dying lay
One whose life was passing away
On the wings Of the closing day
And the summer sun sank TO rest
AS the life breath left the warriors breast
